What is the correct way to set the input tuner i Maco? The one that sets between the relay and the resister that goes to pin 9 on the tube. Jim/238

I am glad they look right, because i already order them. Thanks Jim/238

100PCS 250V 222M 2200PF 2.2NF Safety Y capacitor Would these be the correct caps for the AC line? Jim/238

So the variable is not a true variable. You use that to match the radio to amp. I will put a SWR meter in between tonight an check it out. Jim/238

My mini Scout does not have a keying tube. Also i have no sch on a mini Scout. As you can see the resister has been replaced all the others look original. So i am not sure what ohm resister came in it. The resister on the right, goes between the relay an the coil, reads 68 ohm should be 43...

When i ran this amp before i used a Sonar 2340. Never had a problem. Running a MKll now. The resister is a 2.2K. You can tell it was changed the rest look original. Not sure what the original value was? Jim/238

I was wondering more about the resister that was soldered across the legs of the variable. I have seen caps soldered across, but not resisters.

The early JB 12 & 150 had a keying tube. Do sure if a Mini Scout ever did. I ran it for a little while last nite never messed upped. Jim/238

I just wire the cord in the amp or radio. I have done all my Maco's & some of my Browning's. When i do it that way do i need the cap's? What size are the cap's? Jim/238

Have run this amp off & on far 10 plus years. The other nite it started to chatter when i would key. Was going to clean the relays, but only way you can that is remove the relay. You can turn the variable a little bit it will work okok, then do it again. Just asking about possible problems...

If you change the power cord to a 3 wire do you still need the caps? Jim/238

A friend of mine had a cb shop an had one. He managed too find another one for me. What was the # or name of the Radio Shack clone? Jim/238

Hunting the 6 button assembly for a Superstar 4900+. I believe it is the same as a Magnum 257. On the early radios when the button broke loose, it would fall out. Thought some one might have a junk radio i could get the part from. Jim/238

I am going to change out C24, 40/40/40 x 450v, on my Golden Eagle 68T transmitter. It is not leaking. I checked it with the wires & resisters hooked to it. It checked at around 60uf on 2 of the legs. Would it check correctly with resisters hooked to it. Jim/238

OK Thanks. Jim/238

Got a MKlll i am working on. Why would someone add these to the speaker. They also removed the extrenal speaker plug in the back of the receiver. I got the transmitter & receiver in a trade, It is clean, but has had a lot of mods done to it. Trying to put make stock. Jim/238

Thanks. Learn something new from day to day. Jim/238

The disc capacitor went from pin 5 to ground. There is a black wire that goes to pin 5 & it goes around to all the tubes. What is the reason for the wire going to all the tubes? Thanks Jim/238

The 25ufx25v,C30, checked ok, but looked original. I had planed to change it any how, before my problem. The .01x3K disk cap read 12.33NF on my cap checker. If i crossed it correctly it should have read 10NF. If that is correct, would that much different cause that problem? Thanks Jim/238

I changed the cap on pin 3. Checked the one on pin 2. Then there was one on pin 5, to ground .01 x 3K, not on the sch. It checked 12.33NF. I had a .01x1K so i put that in there. Still no voltage, but i had audio. So i decided i would take a break. None of the schs show checking keyed or not...
